20% off Sale...

Hello everyone, I have been super busy organizing and creating a new and improved workspace for my mini business. I did not realized how much time this would take when I started this huge project. I also had a big, painful problem with one of my fingers. I finally realized that it was my iPhone 6S that wasn't working on for me. I went back to my iPhone 5 and the pain has started to subside. Of course, I was in a huge panic, but I am happy that I was able to figure out the problem.
                   ………………………………………………………………………………...

I am excited to announce a huge sale in my Etsy shop. I am running a 20% sale starting tomorrow, November 17th to December 2nd.

The last day I will be able to ship for "before Christmas" arrival is December 10th. Don't miss out on this one!

Tea Stained French Inspired Vintage Sofa...

Wanted to share this little cutie that I just completed for a customer.  This one matches the chair I made a few weeks back, perfectly (which she has already purchased). Made with a tea stained fabric for vintage character. It's a charming little piece.

More Bedding...

I am slowly adding new bedding to the shop. It takes quite a bit of time to make and stage the beds. So I'm allowing myself to make a few a week. I love playing around with color combinations and texture. In addition to the duvets, you will see a combination of items I have listed in the shop; throws, small and larger throw pillows, bolster pillows and hand painted canvas rugs.

Introducing New Sofa and Chair Throws

I decided to make small sofa and chair throws so that they look more realistic on mini furniture. I have them in 4 colors, but will be adding more soon. They look great on a mini sofa!

New Bedding...

I am really preparing my shop for holiday shopping (fingers x'd). There are lots of new items listed and I have tons more coming. This week I have loaded new 1 1/2 inch toss/throw pillows, new 1 1/4 inch toss/throw pillows, lots of new wonderful color faux shelf blankets and I am slowly starting to add new duvet sets and new smaller hand knitted toss/throw pillow sets in wonderful colors. Once I get all the new items loaded, I will get back to a few wood pieces I never completed, a few small accessories and furniture (chairs and sofas). My goal is to make as many items as I can by the end of October. Then I can take a mini break.
Hope you are having a wonderful day.

Pretty and Tiny Throw Pillow Sets...

I have lots of new miniature dollhouse throw pillows coming to my shop. This group is 1 1/4 inch square. The colors are fantastic and they work well on a bed, a sofa and even a chair. I like to combine the smaller pillows with one larger pillow in a different pattern for an interesting look. Look for a few of the 1 3/4 singles coming too.

The Chesterfield...

Last week I started working on a Chesterfield Sofa. I created a pattern, built the frame and happily began putting it together. Everything was going so smooth until I got to the arms. I tried this and that, and retried that and this, it just didn't work. I decided I didn't want to spend anymore effort on it, so I scratched it (except for the frame).

After thinking about how I could solve some of the problems, I gave it another try. I had a burst of "Chesterfield" energy on Sunday. As I was working and working and working, I began to realize that "I don't like making sofas". I was curious as to how this Chesterfield would turn out, so I kept going.

After a full day, I finally finished the Miniature Dollhouse Chesterfield. I think it turned out okay, there are some things that I could improve upon.

I'm not going to say I will never make another, but…

Testing Sofas...

I've been busy! This weekend in addition to making the French Grain Sack Inspired Chair, I also started testing sofa designs. I love tufting and piping, so of course, this one has both. I played around with a few ideas, some not so successful. But this one, I love!

The one thing I will change for future sofas in this design, are the arms. I think it would have been more successful with a square arm. I also would like to add buttons in the tufting area. My intention was to have this one for sale, but I decided to keep this one for Chez Marcelle, the dollhouse I am working on. I think it's going to work perfectly in the artist studio.

Here's a peek at the design:
